Luminous Arc (SRPG for the DS [Mitsuda composing])

[Fadedsun]

but i think DS is stupid so i wont touch it.

So, uh, you hate games then?

I thought I was the only one that noticed that he said that. =P

"I hate the DS, so I won't play any games on it even if they are good." XD

Not even Trauma Center?  What about Final Fantasy III?  Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime?  Children of Mana?  Lost In Blue?  I wouldn't suppose Deep Labyrinth then. . . .

It's called taste, you know. I couldn't care less about any of the games you listed. Just because everybody here raves about those games doesn't mean I have to like and/or play them.

I just don't like playing on a handheld. I like my eyesight and neck muscles too much.

Reading a book will do the same thing to you. =P

And why did this topic turn into a debate about the DS and Mitsuda's(I think that's his name) music?

[daschrier]

I don't read books either :D

[Fadedsun]

I don't read books either :D

Well, I guess there will be less stress on your neck. XD

Well... RPG wise the DS isn't exactly blessed ATM. So I play a lot of GBA stuff.

The new Advance wars is also SRPG like... I mean you have a story, you level and can equip skills for you characters. Plus in tag matches you can form "parties". Plus it's a great from gameplay.

And while being an Adventure, never been intrugued by Phoenix Wright? You are missing out then.

Back to topic, I really look forward to Luminous Arc. Give me a good deathblow system and something to manage turn-order like in the original FFT and I will already be happy. And archers doing more damage from elevation again... FFT:A was really missing a few important beloved points for me -.-
That, and PLEASE a good story tie in. The FFT:A fights had none whatsoever. I'll soon play Fire Emblem and see if it's better there... I heard so ^^

So, back to waiting... oh, and Luminous Arc will be at the TGS in late September so we can look forward to a more indepth look then. Cya.
